Diode law
Diode Law describes the current-voltage relationship in a diode, governed by the Shockley equation. It states that the current through a diode exponentially increases with forward voltage and remains minimal in reverse bias. This law is fundamental for understanding diode behavior in rectifiers, signal modulation, and voltage regulation applications.
